Chapter 392 - 288 The Secret That Cannot Be Known_3

"Actually, that’s what I’m worried about too. In the Black Dragon Empire, whether in the Dragon Knight Academy or regular army training, competition is brutal, with injuries and even deaths being commonplace. This makes every Black Dragon Knight fierce and tough. But our White Dragon Empire has always upheld tradition. Our laws are protective of the Dragon Knight Academy, so once a student enrolls, it’s like they’ve obtained an aristocrat pass and a license to avoid death. This is not ideal, but we don’t really have a good way to change it," said the Emperor.

"Let’s set aside the Academy issue for now. What I believe is most important at the moment, is army training. We need a war, and now, we have an excuse," said Long Yi.

"I’ll organize a war committee right away. We need to have a discussion! I may need your help at that time, so don’t you dare run away!" the Emperor chuckled.

"Me? Forget about it, I’m not interested. You bureaucrats scare me with the way you talk, I might just get roped into something before I realize it," Long Yi hastily waved off.

"Stop playing coy, who else in this world could outbabble you!" said the Emperor, patting Long Yi’s shoulder, "It’s settled then!"

Long Yi left with a disgruntled expression. Only after the door was closed did the Emperor start to grimace, looking at the completely shattered mechanical bird. He knew he should keep Isrile a secret, but wasn’t this cover-up method a tad too thorough? He hadn’t had enough fun yet!

Long Yi thought declaring war on the Green Dragon Empire was an idea the Emperor had turned over countless of times. Otherwise, no competent emperor would wage a war based on a few words of another person.

Apparently, the Emperor had the same thoughts as him.

He would let the Emperor chew on that. As for Long Yi, he was happily off to school.

With the start of the new academic year, there was a large group of freshmen and their parents gathered by the Academy’s entrance, just like the previous year. The victory over the Black Dragon Empire had greatly invigorated the public’s enthusiasm, hence, the academy accepted a significantly higher number of new students this year, up by several percent.

Wesley and Chef Mosquito, the two brothers, rushed to the entrance to lavish attention on the new female students. Meanwhile, Long Yi and Ai Lin were cleaning their dorms. Up till today, Long Yi was still enjoying the privilege of having a dorm all by himself. Previously, the other bed had been commandeered by Bajie and Xiaoyou. However, now with Isrile around, Long Yi had to extend the bed considerably so Isrile could barely fit. Fortunately, Isrile wasn’t picky about her environment. As long as she had a spot to lie down, she was content.

The new academic year officially commenced and, apparently, a batch of prodigious Dragon Knights have surfaced this year. They practically traced Long Yi’s footsteps. First, they dominated their class using their own strength, then they immediately switched to full-on study mode, training and learning fervently every day. The fastest one applied for the promotion test at the end of the first week, even though he failed the first trial, he only fell short by a few marks.

Upon hearing of this, Long Yi was astonished. Had he started a negative trend? (To be continued. If you like this work, please come at Qidian (qidian.com) to vote and recommend us. Your support is our greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
